Indian Cooking

Would anyone be interested in knowing more about this topic? It is a hobby of mine and I have a real passion for Indian food.
For two of us to eat out at a local Indian, with a couple of beers each, we are looking at the sharp end of £50. We rarely do this now as my wife prefers my style of cooking. I reduce the salt content and the amount of oil that I cook with.
It`s a very tasty and can be a very MSE style of cooking.

working on clearing the clutterDo I want the stuff or the space?0 -
Ok. Tell me EVERYTHING!

And I'll think about it over my curry tonight.
BTW, where do you live? £50 is chuffin' expensive for a 2-person curry. :eek: Round here (Walsall), you could get food for 4 for that much. Beer would, however, double the bill. :beer:
If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -
Hi pobby,
I would love to see your recipes too. I've tried some of curry queen's recipes in this thread: Curry Night but would love to try some more.

Actually, as you're so obviously passionate about it, and I'd really like to have a bash, how d'ya fancy leading a little badexample by the hand through a few (dozen) basic dishes?

Indian food is the fave in our house and if you can have reduced fat in them then thats brill.

I'd love to read more about it.
A question, though, are you cooking Indian food as eaten by Indians, or aiming more for the British Indian restaurant-style food?“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step” - Lao Tzu
